Bobcat Goldthwait's Misfits & Monsters

Bobcat Goldthwait's Misfits & Monsters

Description: This scripted anthology comedy series presents morality tales from the darkly witty mind of creator and four-time Sundance Award-winning writer/director Bobcat Goldthwait. Each standalone episode mashes up wildly different genres -- from 1970s-era science fiction and psychological thriller to romantic comedy and reality -- to tell a socially relevant story with an imaginative twist, and each tale parodies pop culture norms and exploits the awkwardness of its flawed characters. Or, in the words of Goldthwait, " `Misfits & Monsters' examines accepted truths and hypocrisies of our culture and turns them inside out."
Genre: Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller
Year Released: 2018
Number of seasons: 1
Number of episodes: 8
First episode air date: July 11, 2018
Program Creator: Bobcat Goldthwait
